Hi, Everybody!

Can anyone PLEASE enlighten me as to WHY SQL Server Management Studio (v17.4) would flag the following columns as invalid?... The ones with the squiggly red underlines?

98386-select-top-1000-trackingdataid.png

Please see table definition below… 

USE [TrackingService]  
GO  
  
/****** Object:  Table [dbo].[TrackingData]    Script Date: 5/20/2021 8:51:16 PM ******/  
SET ANSI_NULLS ON  
GO  
  
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON  
GO

    Hi @Julio Bello ,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

    We have to refresh our cache after we create new tables/add columns/ new views and so on.

    You could try with Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl + Shift + R

    Or, using the menu: Edit -> IntelliSense -> Refresh Local Cache.

    I tested it in my own environment and it worked.

    Best regards,
    Melissa
